HappyLea, I know a woman who had 4 boys before her gastric band and 2 girls afterwards!

2 boys without swaying, but everything I did swayed boy without me knowing.

ALWAYS ate breakfast. I LOVE cereal so that is what I had every morning.
We ate out a lot when I conceived both of my boys, therefore making everything we ate very high in sodium.
Ate red meat bananas, tomatoes, potatoes, pre packed rice which is high in sodium.
Always had EWCM before ovulation
Our BD pattern was every other day, giving my hubby a higher sperm count
I always had the Big O when we BD'ed

I have always eaten a lot of salt and I have 3 boys.

With the first 2, I had been gaining weight, eating out (high fat and high salt) and BD every day or every other day. Lots of EWCM.

With DS#3, I had a 4-day cutoff (he was a Shettles opposite). I was on a low salt/low pot., high calcium/high mag. diet, BUT, I was eating high protein, high fat (salt free butter and olive oil) and lots of nutrient-rich whole grains and veggies. Also, I was eating a lot of Frosted Mini-Wheats (no salt!). I didn't lose weight (stayed the same). He was conceived on the day of the full moon (all my boys were conceived in the full moon phase).

My conclusion is this: if you want a boy, eat salt, gain weight, eat high-fat, high-protein foods, plus lots of nutrient- rich veggies/fruits. Eat your cereal!

Sending you ladies all my blue dust!!!!!

Wow there are a lot of posts.
Well I have 3 boys and no wonder....
Gained about 10 pounds before conceiving (we were always traveling to Hawaii for a few months before I would conceive and drinking those mai tai's and going out all the time, I always gained weight and would conceive the following month I returned home). Drinking a lot of martini's -- I love my cocktails! Love, love, love red meat. Eat it atleast 2-3 times a week. Dinner's are always meat or fish, veggies & salad. Filets, ribeyes, ground beef, chicken, pork/ribs/loin, duck, etc. etc. I love meat and I love fish and eat it 2x a week, salmon at least 2-3x weeks -- sometimes for lunch. NO carb's ever (when and if I eat carb's they are always whole grain!!). Always eat breakfast every day within 1 hour of waking...2 eggs w/ american cheese in a whole wheat low carb wrap. Love it! Sometimes I add smoked salmon in there -- I eat a lot smoked salmon. Lunch is usually chive cottage cheese w/ a 1/2 avocado or dinner left over's (so more meat/fish from last night). I eat healthy but I eat A LOT, as in I have no portion control, but only really with dinner.
Only drank water, tons of seltzer water. Again, no juice cause I am anti sugar and carb's.
For all 3 we would dtd many many times the week of ovulation. Every night the week of ovulation. I do not normally have much EWCM, none that is noticed but I did have a higher ph. And I always got pg the 1st month I got of bc pills. Also, never had the big O when I was trying to get pg -- it takes a lot to get me to O & it was more like wham bam thank you mam attempts. Sometimes j&d and sometimes just went to bed.
Dh drinks tons of beer and hardly eats any veggies, fruits or dairy -- he is a carb and meat eater. Tons of salt and junk like cookies, cake, donuts, chips, pizza, pasta, potatoes etc. I hate cooking him dinner at night cause I make the main dish and then have to make him a side of pasta or potato b/c he won't eat veggies, but I don't eat the carb's. Arrr! In my next life I will marry a man who eats good, healthy gourmet food I like to cook

Hey ladies!
So I have 4 boys (aged 9, 4 1/2, 2 1/2 and 15 months). I can't tell you exactly to a t as to timing but I will try to remember it all. With my 1st I had missed a few days of birth control and had unprotected sex those days. My diet wasn't exactly healthy either, however I was in school and barely ate the school's lunch. I want to say my sodium was higher because of the choices of foods, didn't limit myself to what not to eat and what to eat.
Son 2 was 2 weeks of sex everyday I want to say sometimes 2 times a day straight through ovulation. We didn't have money so food choices were more fast food and cheap foods not much meats and if so it was more red meats. Lots of snack foods filled with sodium like chips and popcorn and of course Icecream and chocolate. I really dont like milk so my calcium intake with the boys was more so by eating sandwiches with cheese and icecream I LOVE my icecream.
Son 3 sex was more spread out, once every 3-4 days straight through ovulation and I want to say there was a 5 day break and hit it right on or after ovulation. Diet was horrible (I gained tons of weight prior due to depression) and red meat was my friend lol. Cheese burgers, pizza, fast food.. Tons of icecream and chocolate. Anything fattening.
Lastly son 4 was conceived day of ovulation and there was 5-6 days before without sex. Gained weight again and diet was pretty poor like the others.
I took no vitamins with my boys. Icecream/red meat/ pizza (pepperoni), chicken, rice, pastas, chocolate (AGAIN like ice cream this is my must have), cookies, soda (anything from root beer, orange, gingerale and coke).I didnt diet or exercise. So if you are wanting a boy I definitely suggest eating fatty, gain some lbs and just don't look at labels. I never looked at them with the boys. If it looked yummy and was what I wanted there ya go. Also I can tell you now take out 1 -2 times a week also.. Chinese, Dominos, Burger King, Mc D's.. Anything fatty. Hope this helps someone!

the warming pads are anything like a wheat pillow or a hot water bottle (not too hot) put on lower abdomen for a while each day leading up to O. It helps with circulations and builds up the lining in the uterus so implantation is more likely to be successful. I also continued after O to help with implantation. I read about this a couple of years ago and it worked for me straight away (after ttc for ages). When I have suggested it to others who have been struggling too it seemed to work for them to (a few girls on IG) so maybe worth a try?

Good luck!

How long is 'for awhile" i find this interesting and may want to try it to get bfp fast.And when to start after AF? Anyone else did it?sounds good to me.

I might try this next month also! I bet it really helps with O also because it increases circulation in the ovaries.

[girlmom]

i got 7 girls by swaying boy and my first baby boy by swaying girl! sometimes i think doing the oppisite of whatever you were doing to get girls can help alot too.

Yeah Im thinking to start after AF but for how long ?20 min or so? And just make it a little warm not hot.And stop after like 4 days after O?
